The idea of the put/get_user is to access memory that is at the address "reg->addr". The code works as expected on book3s_64 for me too, where sizeof(u64) == sizeof(ulong). On book3s_32 however, sizeof(ulong) is 4, which is not the same as the size of reg->addr, which is u64, thus 8.
So we need to tell the compiler to cut off the high 32 bits (because we can't access them anyways) and instead take the lower 32 bits as the pointer at which address we want to access things. That's basically what the patch I sent out earlier today did :).
